Makeup Product Review: Physicians Formula Mineral Wear 3-in-1 Concealer

The Perfect Cover-up Product

Alexis Valentine
While I was out shopping around for new makeup, and checking out what new products and brands were out at ULTA, I came across a fairly new product by Physicians Formula. Physicians Formula is one of my favorite makeup brands, and usually I'm aware of new products the moment they come out but since I don't have to buy new makeup often, I wasn't aware of this product until I came across it. Physicians Formula came out with a 3-in-1 concealer product that's designed to meet most, if not all, of your cover-up needs. I didn't even have to think about it, I automatically bought one and have been in love with it ever since.

Physicians Formula Mineral Wear 3-in-1 concealer comes with a concealer for your imperfections, a yellow or blue (depends on which one you get) concealer that's designed to balance out dark circles or redness. The last one isn't so much a concealer but a highlighter. It's great for your brow and cheekbones. Their highlighter is what I use the most often, even when I'm not wearing anything else on my face.

I can't express how much I love this product. For around $7 you get three products in one. Each concealer comes in its on rectangular tube with a sponge tip applicator. I like that they snap together at the sides like Lego blocks, so I can either carry one or keep all three of them together. It's definitely very compact and portable, a good size to carry around in your purse and perfect for plane rides. Physicians Formula Mineral Wear 3-in-1 concealer is easy to find too. It's sold anywhere that sells Physician Formula products, and the brand itself is a pretty big one.

I like the applicator, it's small but firm, which makes it easy to control. I've been using all three of these products for about a month now and haven't noticed any breakouts or irritation. It doesn't clog my pores, and it's so light I don't even feel it on my skin. It's great for those with sensitive skin too. Unlike a lot of liquid concealers, this one isn't the least bit greasy, and it's not watery either.

I did have some minor issues with Physicians Formula 3-in-1 concealer though. The regular concealer, number two, doesn't quite give me enough coverage for certain areas but that could be because I didn't get the right shade. My other issue with this product is that the yellow concealer can look a bit cakey, and accentuate any dry skin patches and lines if you use too much. I would recommend using it lightly and using your ring finger to spread it out evenly with a dabbing motion.

Overall, like I said, I love this product. It's not perfect, but the issues I had with it were very minor. This is one makeup product I won't have to worry about going to waste, I'm definitely going to use it up.
